There are several things that should work. You can re-wash them in your regular detergent, then dry. Or you can wash them with a cup of baking soda instead. You can also wash them with detergent plus a cup of baking soda added together in the wash water, which would probably be the best solution.

Once the clothes are washed again, and if the odor is gone, dry them immediately to prevent the sour smell from returning. Also, hanging them in sunshine after washing will help a lot, too.

Clothes may smell funky after washing due to bacteria trapped in the fabric. To get rid of the smell, try re-washing the clothes with a cup of white vinegar or baking soda, using a scent booster in the laundry, or soaking the clothes in water mixed with vinegar before washing. Additionally, make sure to clean your washing machine regularly to prevent the build-up of odors.

How do you get soured smell out of clothes?

To remove the sour odor of clothes you generally wash them (again if they have already been washed) with detergent. When my brother moved out of our parent's home he left his old baby blanket that reaked of his body odor. My mother wanted to keep it because it because it was something personal to her. It took 5 washes to get the odor out. If washing clothes in detergent do not remove the odor the next step would be to mix fragerance liquid (to pour the liquid of air spray onto the clothes).
